The capital stock is then either returned to the corporation or sold to the remaining shareholders, depending on the terms outlined in the shareholder's will or the corporation's bylaws. Option A is incorrect because the shares do not automatically transfer to the shareholder's next of kin. Option C is incorrect because there is no requirement for the capital stock to be donated to a PT charity. Option D is incorrect because the shares still exist but have changed ownership.
